Scott Shaw!

Will Be Busy As Ever At The 2009 San Diego Comic Con International

Click Here to see our NEWLY LISTED Comics, Graphic Novels, Toys, Fanzines and Prozines!

Continuing My Series On Creators that will be at the Comic Con International San Diego 2009, AND whom I think You should make a point to stop and see...

Is Scott Shaw!, who will be at his booth, which is next to Sergio Aragones's booth of course, PLUS at multiple panels / programs this year at the SDCC!

For those of you that aren't aware of Scott's background, you can find this writeup from him on his Facebook member account Wall: "An experienced professional cartoonist writing and drawing comic books, animation, advertising and toy design, I'm also a historian of comics and cartooning."

I've taken my older kids to Scott's Oddball Comics Slideshow for several years running while they still lived at home.  They would always get a kick out of it when it played in the evening!  Now, my wife Tina and I attend the Slideshow, although it is usually scheduled earlier in the day in recent years at this Con.

Scott has sent me the following schedule for those of You that would like to see the programs he is either hosting or participating on:

SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON INTERNATIONAL ‘09
SCHEDULE FOR SCOTT SHAW!

WEDNESDAY, JULY 22:

It’s preview night! I’ll be setting up business at Table #I (rhymes with “eye”) 08, right next to Sergio Aragonés! Throughout the convention, I’ll be signing my comics, doing complementary cartoon sketches for kids 12 and under and promoting new projects! Look for my ODDBALL COMICS banner!

THURSDAY, JULY 23:

Secret Origins of Comic-Con! -- 11:00-12:30 am --Room 2: How did it all begin? Those who were there in 1969 (most of them teenagers at the time!) have the behind-the-scenes story of the very first meetings, the first mini-con, and the first Golden State Comic-Con at the U.S. Grant in 1970. Panelist include Richard Alf, Barry Alfonso, Greg Bear, Dave Clark, Roger Freedman, Ken Krueger, Scott Shaw!, and Mike Towry, with William R. Lund as moderator.

FRIDAY, JULY 24:

The Cartoon Art Museum Sketch-A-Thon Funderaiser with Bobby London and Scott Shaw! -- 3-4pm -- Table #1930: Bobby and I will be drawing sketches for Comic-Con attendees in exchange for donations to San Francisco’s stellar Cartoon Art Museum.

SATURDAY, JULY 25:

Quick Draw! with Mark Evanier, Sergio Aragonés, Floyd Norman and Scott Shaw! – 11:15-12:30 am – Room 6BCF: We say it each and every year, but it's true: Quick Draw! is the most fun panel you can visit at Comic-Con. Mark Evanier puts Sergio Aragonés, Scott Shaw!, and this year's guest artist, Disney Legend Floyd Norman, through their paces as they draw on the big screen. If you haven't seen this amazing display of cartooning magic, this is the year for you: join the fun!

Oddball Comics -- 3pm – 4:30pm -- Room 7AB:
As seen in the pages of GEEK MONTHLY MAGAZINE, cartoonist Scott Shaw! (CAPTAIN CARROT AND THE FINAL ARK, BART SIMPSON COMICS, SIMPSONS SUMMER SHINDIG) brings back his ever-popular digital slide show featuring "the craziest comic books ever published!" See why Stan Lee said, "Wow, True Believers, I thought I'd seen it all, but Scott Shaw's hysterically hilarious Oddball Comics is the wildest, wackiest exposé of some of the craziest comic books I've ever seen! Or, to put it mildly, Scott's outrageous opuses are a blast!"

DIG COMICS screening – 6:30-7:15 – Room 26AB:
Director/host Miguel Cima, associate producer Cory Blake and on-camera interviewee/animation director Scott Shaw! discuss Miguel’s passionate quest for the answer to “Why does America ignore comic books as a legitimate form of entertainment and art?”

SUNDAY, JULY 26:

THE ANNUAL JACK KIRBY TRIBUTE PANEL – 10 -11 am – Room 4: Fifteen years ago, Jack Kirby -- "King of the Comics" -- left us, but his vision and creations live on to inspire everyone who comes into contact with his work. Mark Evanier (author of KIRBY: KING OF COMICS) moderates this annual tribute to the King. Joining Mark this year will be actor/writer/musician Bill Mumy, editor Steve Saffle, inker Mike Royer, Kirby family lawyer Paul S. Levine, a few surprises and the reunion of five of the six members of “The San Diego Five-String Mob” (go figure!), a group of San Diego Comic-Con’s founding members who Kirby immortalized in the pages of SUPERMAN’S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN (William R. Lund, Mike Towry, Roger A. Freedman, Barry Alfonso and Scott Shaw! – minus, unfortunately, John Pound, who had to cancel.)

So when I titled this blog post "Scott Shaw! Will Be Busy As Ever At The 2009 SDCCI !"  I wasn't kidding, wuz I ???

A Personal Note:   My dad worked at the San Diego Zoo for a short time in the Zoo's accounting department.  Scott's dad had been working there longer and was well known to the Zoo's personnel.  Scott, who is a year older than myself, also worked there as one of his first jobs.  I worked at the Zoo starting in my last year of high school and through college.  Talk about a 'small world', and San Diego wasn't that small in the late 1960's!

BTW, if you are not one of the 125,000+ persons that are attending this great comic book & pop culture convention this month, then you should take a look at both of Scott's websites for fun and great deals:  http://www.shawcartoons.com/  and  http://www.oddballcomics.com

However, if you are attending  the San Diego Comic Con International later on this month, then please find and then hi-lite on your program map to see both Scott Shaw! at his booth and at the panels / programs he'll be at.  You'll be glad You did!  I know I will as always!

Please Note:  Days and Times of signings /programs / panels / doors opening etc., are subject to change at any convention, so double check that when you get there!  There is a daily updated printed schedule that is available onsite!

For those that don't know... the 2009 SDCC / CCI-SD is being held at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California. 

The address is: 111 W Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA.  Dates of the Con are from July 23rd through July 26th, with a Preview Night July 22nd for 4 day Badge Members Only!  However as this blog post 'goes to press' ALL memberships have been SOLD OUT already!

BTW, unless we are onsite all day & night during a comic con... we do blog daily on comics and pop culture news and events!  Check out our daily blog posts, new listings of comics, graphic novels, Comic Con exclusives and more pop culture items for sale in our online eBay Featured Store

Thanks again to all of YOU reading our current and archived blog posts!!

Above are Jim Balent and Holly Golightly as seen at a previous comic con. They will be at their BroadSword Comics booth during the 2009 SDCCI.  Tonya Kay (shown at right), will be making A Special TWO DAY Signing Appearance Only on WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY, so don't miss out seeing her then!

   

Jim Balent, Holly Golightly & Tonya Kay

Will Be Signing At The 2009 San Diego Comic Con International

Click Here to see our NEWLY LISTED Comics, Graphic Novels, Toys, Fanzines and Prozines!

Continuing My Series On Creators that will be at the Comic Con International San Diego 2009, AND whom I think You should make a point to stop and see...

Are Jim Balent and Holly Golightly at their BroadSword Comics Booth! 

For those that aren't aware of Jim's background: "JIM BALENT is an American comic book illustrator from Pennsylvania. He is perhaps best known for his long run on Catwoman between 1993 and 1999. Balent has also drawn Batman and Lobo for DC Comics, as well as some of the issues of Purgatori for the independent comic publisher Chaos! Comics. In 1999, Balent left mainstream comics to form his own company, BroadSword Comics, which publishes Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose. Broadsword Comics also reprinted Vampfire, which was created, written and drawn by Balent's wife Holly Golightly."

Holly is also well known in the comics industry:   "HOLLY GOLIGHTLY is a comic book writer and artist, formerly known as Fauve. She also has worked under the name Holly G! Her list of work ranges from Nightmare Theatre (for Chaos! Comics) to Sabrina (for Archie Comics) to her creator-owned work like Vampfire and School Bites. She also is the colorist for Jim Balent's Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose as well as the model for Tarot herself. She has recently expanded into pin-ups/modeling with her husband Jim Balent doing the photography and has her own pin-up calendar."

Plus For Two Days Only (Wednesday and Thursday), Jim and Holly will be joined by Tonya Kay, who is better known to comic book fans as 'Creature', the Superhero contestant on the First Season of Stan Lee's 'Who Wants To Be A Superhero?!".   

Holly sent me the following message to post with this blog:

"BroadSword Comics' Jim Balent & Holly G! will be at booth 1715
from 7/22-7/26!

They will be doing free quick convention sketches and signning whatever goodies that you bring to the table!  There will be rare issues and a Special SDCC Sketchbook!

Also... Tonya Kay of Stan Lee's "So you want to be a Superhero" will be joining Jim & Holly 7/22 & 7/23  ONLY!

A Special Pin Up has been created to celebrate her Broadsword Comics Booth appearance that you may get signed by both Jim & her at purchase!   WooHoo!"

There's even more going on at the Broadsword Comics booth after Tonya Kay leaves their booth... So check 'em out when you get a chance after wards as well!

BTW, if you are not one of the 125,000+ persons that are attending this great comic book & pop culture convention this month, then you should take a look at both Jim's & Holly websites:  (mature audiences only for Jim's) http://www.jimbalent.com          and  http://www.myspace.com/hollywitch

However, if you are attending  the San Diego Comic Con International later on this month, then please find and then hi-lite on your program map the Broadsword Comics Booth to see Holly & Jim.  You'll be glad You did!  I know I will!

Will Be At The Exhibit A Press Booth

During The 2009 San Diego Comic Con International!

Click Here to see our NEWLY LISTED Comics, Graphic Novels, Toys, Fanzines and Prozines!

Batton Lash

Continuing My Series On Creators that will be at the Comic Con International San Diego 2009, AND whom I think You should make a point to stop and see...

Is Batton Lash, well known writer for several comic book titles!  He invites YOU to stop in during the convention to see him and his many works on display and for purchase at his company's 'Exhibit A Press' booth at  the SDCC's booth number 1909... Plus stop in for special signings!  

I have blogged here before about his great work on the Radioactive Man comics from Bongo Comics!  Plus his work on 'Supernatural Law', which was orignally titled 'Wolff and Byrd: Counselors of the Macabre", until changing with issue #24.   So I asked him what would be New at this year's Comic Con!

Batton told me the following: 

"Here's what I'll have at the Exhibit A Press booth (#1909):

A "Supernatural Law" Con exclusive: a 64 page trade pb "Tales from the Vault: An Anniversary Special", celebrating 30 years of Wolff & Byrd, Counselors of the Macabre.

Archie signing for the "Archie: Freshman Year" trade pb with writer Batton Lash, artist Bill Galvan and editor Mike Pellerito.

Bongo signing, featuring a Con exclusive: a trade collection of the recent 3-issue "Radioactive Man Event"! At the booth signing will be writer Batton Lash, artist Tone Rodriguez, inker Andrew Pepoy and cover artist/editor Bill Morrison.

Melissa Uran, assistant artist on "Supernatural Law" will be signing and selling her fantasy/ adventure drawings and paintings at the booth. She will also have a fabulous Wolff & Byrd (with their clients) painting for sale!

All that and more, including the debut of a new Graffiti "Supernatural Law" t-shirt!"

So yeah, the above definitely sounds like several good reasons to stop in and say Hi to Batton and his wife Jackie Estrada!   Tina and myself have already added this booth for one of our stops for sure!  Plus I want to see my Facebook Friends signing there, including  Bill Galvan of Scrapyard Detectives fame that I've blogged about before!

BTW, if you are not one of the 125,000+ persons that are attending this great comic book & pop culture convention this month, then you should take a look at Batton & Jackie's web site:  http://www.exhibitapress.com

CONVENTION TIP:  Always make sure that the creators You want to sign Your comics know how to spell your name, even if it is a 'common' name.  You wouuln't believe how many people mis-spell 'Michael' !  Shown below is Michael holding his Con Badge out with the correct spelling for Larry Lieber to sign Michael's favorite Rawhide Kid comic book  at the 2003 San Diego Comic Con International held at the Convention Center in San Diego, California.
